Summer is one of the best times of the year to visit your local metal recycling center. The odds are good a few items you use during this season are ready to go in the trash. At New York’s Metalico Rochester, with three locations throughout the city, they’ll be glad to take them off your hands.

The following are just a few summer items you can take to the scrapyard:

  • Metal-RecyclingGrills: If you’ve been thinking about upgrading your grill, bring your old one to a metal recycling center. Doing so can help offset the cost of your new one.
  • Furniture: Unless you have a lot of storage space, your outdoor patio furniture has likely spent a lot of time exposed to the elements. Make yourself more comfortable with a new set, and, if any of your old furniture is metal, recycle it at the scrapyard.
  • Yard Tools: Are you still using the same shovel and spades you bought when you first got your home? Gardening with rusted tools makes gardening more difficult. You’re better off recycling them in favor of new ones.
  • Lawn Machinery: If your old metal lawn mower has reached the end of its life span, you can recycle that too. The same goes for your weed whacker and other pieces of lawn care machinery.
  • Bikes: Summer is a great time to ride a bike, but not if it’s old and rusted. Luckily, a metal recycling center may have use for the scrap parts, and you can invest in a new one. 
  • Pool Care Equipment: Old skimmers and related pool care tools don’t need to go in the trash. If they have any metal pieces, recycle them instead.

This summer, bring your old items to Metalico Rochester for metal recycling, and find out what they’re worth. Doing so will also make your home a lot more clean and comfortable this season. Contact them online to learn more about what they accept, or call (585) 436-0713 today.
